Higher Intelligence, science fiction
Higher Intelligence is a science fiction novel about human conflict with a life form on another planet. It is a metaphor for our treatment of animals who we consider to be of inferior intelligence. At its heart, the novel reveals critical life themes about animals, the environment, and what happens when humankind’s penchant for controlling both reaches its inevitable tragic conclusion.
